Information about Retuerta Mills

The company created by David Menénedez is unique in Spain and can only be assimilated to others from outside the country, which in Retuerta Mills there are hydraulic mills that grind slowly and with such delicacy and care, this prevents, among other positive factors, the overheating of the raw material, consequently it protects in a special way all the qualities of the product during grinding, of course this delicate This process is detrimental to the benefit of greater production and disadvantages the margin price for the company, hence its fine and refined texture, so different, in addition to its natural smell, reminiscent of a surprising product of yesteryear, all this logically with the addition of Totally ecological milling.

On January 23, 2019, a catastrophe occurred in Agones, Pravia. After his son was born, he lost his job. A flood completely destroyed the sports facilities where he worked at Agones. With great strength he decided to invest his efforts in the project of his life, dedicating himself body and soul to giving a new life to the Retuerta mill. It was just at that moment when I had enough time and motivation to start the project, since it was my family's dream. The mill is over 300 years old and has a glorious past.

Since he was a child he dreamed of the opportunity to work for himself, being a miller. He restored it and took on the challenge of being a miller 2.0. Dream fulfilled!!

That's why in Made in Spain Gourmet, we are very proud to have their flours and David on our website.
